Method
- Use a well-greased souffle dish lined with greased heavy-duty foil.
- In a bowl, combine chocolate wafer crumbs, melted butter & sugar. Press into bottom of prepared pan. Place in freezer until ready to use.
- In large bowl, using electric mixer, beat cream cheese & sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Beat in whipping cream & vanilla.
- In saucepan over low heat, combine coffee, chocolate chips, and cream. Cook, stirring, until melted.
- Pour into cheese mixture and beat until thoroughly combined. Spoon over prepared crust.
- Prepare a strip of foil to lower the cake into the cooker: Cut off a strip of foil at least 18" long. Double it lengthwise to create a long strip.
- Pour 1 1/2 cups water into your larger pressure cooker. Set a trivet on the bottom to raise the cheesecake above the water.
- Center the cheesecake on the foil strip and lower it onto the trivet.
- Fold down the ends of the foil strip slightly so that they won't interfere with closing the lid.
- Lock the lid in place. Over high heat bring to high pressure. Reduce the heat to maintain high pressure and cook for 15 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and allow the pressure to come down naturally. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow steam to escape.
- After the steam escapes, lift the pan from the cooker using the foil strip and set on a rack to cool.
- If there is any condensed water on the cake, blot with a clean paper towel.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Serve each slice with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
